My life is, by every objective measurement, very very good.

And in spite of all of that, I struggle every day with my self esteem, my self worth, and my value not only as an actor and writer, but as a human being.

That’s because I live with Depression and Anxiety, the tag team champions of the World Wrestling With Mental Illness Federation.

      Your mileage may vary of course. I’ve only hired in the US where corps like to fact-check any dates you give, but in a rare success for labor laws and precedent, no rational company will confirm anything other than dates of employment and if you are “eligible for rehire”. Meaning if you want to leave a company off your resume and say it was personal time it’s unlikely you’d be found out. For higher level jobs though I still recommend minimalist honesty.
